Reporting from Washington -- Approaching his 100th day in the White House at a time of economic turmoil, President Barack Obama holds the approval of nearly two-thirds of Americans surveyed for the job that he is performing - and seven in 10 say they like Obama the man.

Most say they approve of the president's overall handling of the economy, although the effects of his policies remain uncertain.

Obama's job approval as president stands at 63% in a poll released this morning by the Washington-based Pew Research Center -- with just 26% of those surveyed saying they disapprove of the way that Obama is handling his job.

The president draws a similar rating in a new poll conducted by the Associated Press and GfK Roper Public Affairs and Media: 64% job approval. The AP-GfK survey also finds, for the first time in five years, more Americans saying the nation is headed in the right direction than those who say it is not.
